"It will ban the sale, the transfer, the importation, and the possession. Not retroactively, but prospectively. It will ban the same for big clips, drums or strips of more than 10 bullets," she said. "There will be a bill."

Well let us pray & hope that it does not go through.

I'd say there is no way that it'll get through the House.... but I also thought there was no way that Obamacare would make it past the supreme court, and that Obama would get reelected.

What I don't understand is how any ban of a particular type of firearm could hold up in court - the Heller decision made it plain that it was unconstitutional to ban an entire class of gun.

Here's something different than the standard doom and gloom... kind of a glass-is-half-full view point, I guess.

She stated she'd had it sitting on the shelf for the past year.  Just waiting for the right opportunity to introduce it.  What a vulture.

You can't find anything in stock. I just spent the last hour searching for an LPK. BCM had a couple DPMS kits left, so i bought one.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

Picked up 3 Sabre Defense stripped lowers this evening. I'm debating whether or not to get mags, as I already have about 20.

Report of my brother-in-law, who called me in a panic, is that the Walmart in Beatrice and all three in Lincoln are sold out. As well as Scheels, save for a few very high $$ ones. I told him he could have one of the lowers.

i saw her on the PBS Newshour.... unbelievable, all i could do is laugh at the crap she spewed.

i think a good way to oppose this bill is to tell all of our representatives that if they ban "assault weapons" then they are putting out thousands of workers out of work.  the gun industry would suffer, no civilian money = no jobs, especially with the high probability of .mil spending cuts.  also, focus on the mental health issue.

The time is now 11:30. Pure amateur market speculation:

Everything has about doubled. The only in-stock Pmags are nearing $30, and you can't be picky.
USGI mags are around $24.
Only in stock lowers, stripped, are going for nearly $300.

There is a rumor that an OA stripped lower went for $900 on arfcom, have not been able to verify.

Been looking for stripped lowers all night and can't find any decent ones at a reasonable price. And every major gun website has been down or extremely slow.

This bill is a feel good bill.   It only bans the future.  Not the ones you already own.  So it does nothing but create panic and job loss.
